  \code{ceil()} is an alias for \code{ceiling()} and rounds to the smallest
  integer equal to or above \code{n}.

  \code{fix()} truncates values towards 0 and is an alias for \code{trunc()}.

  The corresponding functions \code{floor()} (rounding to the largest interger
  equal to or smaller than \code{n}) and \code{round()} (rounding to the
  specified number of digits after the decimal point, default being 0) are
  already part of R base.
